Hare Kṛṣṇa to you my dear Guru Mahārāja

Please accept my respectful obeisances unto your Lotus Feet

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda

All glories to Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga

Today is the very auspicious day of your appearance. As a disciple, for me this day must be best day in every year. Spiritual master is the life and soul of a disciple. Today we can all open our hearts to glorify your Holiness and express our feelings and gratitude, and also hear from our godbrothers and sisters, how much you are thriving amidst so much suffering for the sole purpose of serving Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission. Theoretically, we know all these things, but a fool like me doesn't have any feelings in my heart. How can I glorify your greatness.

Guru Mahārāja? All the devotees are doing extra rounds and many austerities for your better health and well-being. I am not even able to do that properly. I am struggling to complete my daily sadhana. Please forgive me for such aparādhās that I am commiting, despite them being numerous. You are my eternal father, I beg you to forgive your daughter though she is not eligible to even ask for it. But without your mercy, I can't move forward, I can't do any spiritual activities.

I sincerely hope that your Holiness is doing well by the mercy of Śrīla Prabhupāda and Guru Paramparā..

In this occasion of your Vyāsa-pūjā festival, I would like to thank you with all my heart for bringing me closer to the purpose of my life each day.

I consider it a great privilege to be alive, in the time period of your existence in this material world. I have been wondering how compassionate Śrīla Prabhupāda is, while reading his Līlāmṛta. I felt that I've missed the golden times when Śrīla Prabhupāda walked on this planet. But after having the association of his direct disciple, your Holiness, it is my great fortune to get connected to the guru paramparā through your causeless mercy.

Gurudeva, I cant decide which is it.. your unlimited compassion to save the suffering conditioned fallen souls and to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness to the whole world or your determination to distribute Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mercy to all the conditioned and fallen souls without any discrimination that makes you the Best Disciple and also the Best Guru to ever walk the earth.

I beg at your Lotus feet and pray that we always be in the association of pure devotees of Kṛṣṇa, not commit any aparādhās and maintain my daily sadhana without fail. Gurudeva, I take refuge at your Lotus feet, please provide me the spiritual strength to overcome the hurdles and obstacles in this path of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

Gurudeva, by the mercy of your Holiness I am conducting online preaching about Śrīmad-bhāgavatam and Bhagavat gītā throughout Kerala's Nāmahaṭṭas. I give Śrīmad-bhāgavatam and Prabhupāda līlāmṛta classes on a weekly and monthly basis. I am not qualified to do such preaching, but your mercy keeps me going. Please bless me Gurudeva, so that I can reach the hearts of those who listen to me and make a change in their lives.

Gurudeva, I am begging for your mercy to empower me to serve you more and more. We're always seeking your blessings for our Ananta Padmanābha Cakra devotees too, please bless me to serve and guide them. By your mercy anything is possible in spiritual life Gurudeva. I shall continue my services to please You and our Guruparampara.

There are many hurdles that I need to pass in both spiritual and material life, however by remembering and tightly holding onto your lotus feet, I am easily able to give up those anxieties. Life after life, I am grateful to you Gurudeva.

On this auspicious occasion, myself, my good husband Bahu Karuna Nitāi Dāsa and our children Gayathri Babu (sheltered devotee of your Holiness) and Gokul Babu (aspiring devotee of your Holiness) join together for wishing you on your appearance day. We are very fortunate to have taken shelter of your protection Gurudeva. Please bless us Gurudeva, so that these fallen souls can make some progress together in pure devotional service and always remain refugees at your lotus feet.

On this auspicious occasion of your appearance I pray to Rādhā Mādhava, Pañca-tattva, Narasiṁhadev..and our dearest Karuna Nitāi Premānanda Gaura to bless you with the health, strength and energy to carry on with your mission of spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness unlimitedly, just as Śrīla Prabhupāda desired.

Your ever-loving Spiritual Daughter
